Bali won out over Rome, Italy, in the final selection process as host for the 10th World Water Forum in a vote that required a simple majority or a minimum 19 votes from the 36 voting selectors. Bali received 30 votes to win the competition. Bali’s selection for the 10th World Water Forum reflects the international community’s faith in Indonesia’s commitment and leadership role in water resource management. Access to clean air and sanitation are critical elements in Global Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The 10th WWF in 2024 has adopted the theme “Water for Shared Prosperity,” reflecting a very relevant requirement given the current global situation. The supply of clean water remains a complex challenge in many countries worldwide. Indonesia is the first Southeast Asian nation chosen to host the WWF. The hosting of the prestigious global event is seen as strengthening Indonesia’s role in the management of sustainable water resources.
